The Department publishes the amount spent by schools on agency supply teaching staff (as well as costs and receipts from supply teacher insurance) annually for local authority maintained schools, and for academies. Published schools’ Consistent Financial Reporting and Academies’ Accounting Returns are available at the following link: https://schools-financial-benchmarking.service.gov.uk/Help/DataSources.

Data from previous years is also available, for local authority maintained schools from 2010, and for academies from 2012.
